spaz i vegged my girls for like 2 or 3 weeks and they been on 12/12 for about a month. Once they went under the 12/12 it takes usually a week to 2 for u to see those 2 little clear hairs coming out of the stalk. Nelly, i wish i woulda done that earlier but at this stage i think it be to much stress and she seems to be growin nicely anyways. Also the Hps is the closest to the plant as it can be, obviously she is just out of her growin enviroment in those pics cuz the mylar on my walls ruins the pics. The reason she is stretched is cuz white widow is a sativa dominant strain and if u reserach ull find that sativas tend to be lankier than indicas. white widow is specially known to do so, its not cuz the light is to far away lol if anythang im gonna have to move it up soon cuz the top is only like 8in away lol

Hi. I'm on my home stretch of my first grow ever of white widows. What I found was that they really enjoyed my fish emulsion fertilizer, did great on the 24-hour vegging cycle, and that I made a big mistake by leaving them in vegetative mode for too long.

My mistake:
What i did was leave it on the 24-hours vegging mode for exactly 48 days. Oh, biiig mistake. I should have let them grow for a month, and then switched to flowering.

Now, I have 6 1/2 foot plants in my closet that I'm trying to tie back with yarn. I guess I wasn't aware HOW much they'd keep growing as soon as I switched to 12/12. Uggh.

So, take it from my mistake with this strain: Veg it for a month or until it's like 2 feet tall. Then, switch it unless you want plants so huge that you can't figure out what to do with them.

lol
wtf how did u get ur plants to 2 feet in a month? Im on day 30 and my plants are only 6 fucking inches.....

anber i think u mightas ment to post that somewhere alse? lol
i dunno but my white widow is like 4ft tall and i only vegged it for like a month. Wen i put it to flower she was prolly over 1ft already. And youd be surprise how fast cannabis can grow and also that they grow on spurs so after its been vegged for a month and its been accumulating energy, all of a sudden itll take off.

i only use nirvana or attitude seed banks and i havent experienced any (but im a newbie still remember) i think hermies got more to do with the conditions the plant is under and make sure they get 100% darkness in their dark period. But of course some banks are more truts worthy than others; but hey stay put and be lookin for my results at the end of my grow.

whats up guys? anybody still there? sorry i aint been able to make this a more exciting journal, i think if i had a better cam i would put more time into it. But, today is monday, thursday it will be 7 weeks since i went 12/12 and i have to say the plants are lookin beautiful. The only reason i know the timing now is thanks to this thread lol but i was pretty close in my head. The gurls look right for about 7 weeks and im thinkin (dependin on now they do) that ill let them go at least 2 more weeks maybe 3 to let them get the full 10 weeks the pros recommend. Ill be tryin for pics soon so stay posted.:bigjoint:

White widow is lookin amezing. looks strait out of a high times mag, full of crystals lettin u know she is a white widow. My count tells me that im on week 7 now, that may be a little premature but i compared it to 6-7 week old wite widow pictures and they looked just like them. So im guessin another 3 weeks or 4 weeks til is fully done. Even tho it looks beautiful only maybe 10-20 percent of the pistils have turned brown so thinkin of harvestin at 8 weeks in out of the question. Im juss hoppin what will really be 4 more weeks (since today was the 1st day fo the 7th week) will be enough to give me some fully ripped and fully mature buds bcause after all this watin im not goin to roun it by choppin it to early.:eyesmoke:

whast up guys
im on my final weeks of my grow so i decided to ask some harvesting questions. And here is what im growin: White Widow that looks like she could use 2 more weeks of flowering at least. A bag seed that seems to be right around the same maybe a weeks less ( but they are both in the same aerogarden). And a roadrunner that has blown through flowerin in should be ready in a week. My questions are: If the white widow needed longer than the bag seed to finish, i heard that if i cut the bag seed before it the roots of it will rotten and kill my white widow? could i leave about 10% of the bag seed so it stays alive? And last but not least, should i start flushin already or should i give them another week of nutes? the aerogarden plants that is and they are on fox farm 3 part nutes + some cal-mag. I heard somewhere with hydro u only needed a week to a couple days of flushin.
Any help will be great even if u dont have al the answers lol
But im hella excited cuz im almost there!!
And not to far behind with 2 weeks into flowering AND LOOKIN GREAT is my afghan kush. :blsmoke:

there might be some more people around if you had some pics bro. two weeks ago I harvested my white widow (outdoors) and it was at just over 7 weeks and it was ready and I mean right now ready, not tomorrow ready, TODAY ready. Trichs were showing anywhere from 30%-75% amber depending on the area of the plant. very good smoke I must say. I cant imagine what It would have looked like at 10 weeks man it would have been a lost cause at that point with probably 100% dark amber trichs...but I guess it depends on what kind of high your looking for.
